Advanced Philosophy

This course undertakes a comprehensive study into the transcendental philosophy of Mulla Ṣadra, through a close reading of ʿAllāma al-Ṭabāṭabāʾī’s masterpiece, Bidāyat al-ḥikma. It situates the philosophy of Mulla Ṣadra in the broader history of Islamic philosophy, exposing students to previous philosophers, and covers discussions on the reality of existence and nature of the necessary being.
